Have you considered the possibility that ftp.FreeBSD.org, as the main FTP distribution site of the FreeBSD project, is slightly overloaded right now, due to the recent release of FreeBSD 4.5? Maybe you should try some of the mirrors - your domain name, ukip.org, seems to suggest UK, so maybe you should try some of the UK sites; from a quick perusal of the results of a host command, it seems that there is ftp.uk.FreeBSD.org, and there are ftp2 through ftp6.uk.FreeBSD.org.. G'luck, Peter PS. Once again, redirected to -questions. -- I've heard that this sentence is a rumor.
